This isn’t free

I made the mistake of downloading this app to have a good look at what it had to offer. I then decided I didn’t want it so deleted it off my phone. I then found that I had been charged $99 for this app (which I still don’t want). BE CAREFUL! It isn’t easy to see that you’ll be charged.

Highly recommended

I’ve had a hard time sticking to any workout and eating plan but I started on the 7 day trial which gave me meal plans too! Got me started and trained well enough to continue even without the pro version. Although the pro version is so handy to keep track of all your meals and workouts too! It’s only my third week using the app only Monday to Friday and I’ve lost 4 kilos and I feel much better too! Thanks to the minds behind the app! I love what you’re doing here and I hope you keep it going!

Good food, great exercises, friendly coaches

I’ve been using this app for almost 6 months and in considerably stronger and have more energy. While my eating habits still aren’t perfect - the food is good and does not feel like you’re on a diet as the portion sizes are GENEROUS.

The exercises level up as you do - from the beginning to what looks downright impossible - you’re able to progress through the program as long as you do them consistently.

Did I mention I lost weight. Yes. Yes I did. It’s a life long change for me so I’m def taking it slow but it feels so good to fit into a top you haven’t been able to wear for a couple years. :)

Great fit app

I've recently begun working out and eating better. 39.5 years old and wanting to lose 40lb by 40yo. So far this app has been a great motivator for me. I have meal planning and exercise/workout routines set up for me. I can't afford the extra time to devote to a local gym as I am in a rural area with a busy home and work schedule, but this allows me to work from home with no extra equipment needed. I'm very pleased with the options, I can tailor food planning to my likes, change up workout options if something is too painful for my back. I have signed up for the year and I believe this will be something that I continue in the future. While I'm only 4 days into this, I'm impressed thus far and I believe the more I lose and the stronger/more experienced I become that the routines will grow with me. I found that I can devote 20 minutes to exercise easily with this app. Thanks!

Awesome Workouts

I really love this app, the workouts are pretty spot on for your skill level and I find them challenging but fun and I always break a killer sweat. I really appreciate that the workouts are free and it gives you the option to pay for the meal plan if you wish. It is one of the reasons why this is the best workout app I’ve used, you get a full and rewarding workout without necessarily having a monthly subscription. I love this app and have recommended it to many friends. Bring on the results 😊

Good Workouts, Poor Meal Planning

This is a great app for getting back into fitness or starting a fitness regime.

I do wish the exercises could be more tailored when it comes to injuries. For example, I had a torn rotator cuff and cannot do the extreme styles of push-ups or some arm exercises. I find myself either adapting my own exercise to replace a push-up or skipping them entirely.

The meals are good. I have tried 3 now however the measurements are off. They are all for single servings and it’s hard to plan or shop sometimes. Also, you wouldn’t make just one serving of a meatloaf so adapting the recipes to at least 2 or meals would be helpful. To counter this, I have been doubling up everything in the recipes but it can get time consuming.

Still a good app and great tool to use when traveling especially for the exercise!

Great, but...

Overall, this is a great app. The workouts are intense and I've seen results that are beyond my expectations. However...because of a rotator cuff injury from the military, while I can still do push ups, I cannot do a couple of the upper body/arm exercises. When I tell the app that I can't do the exercise properly, it tells me that I need to go back to "rookie" status, even though I've killed all the other workouts.

Not making room for people who may have issues with one or two exercises, while advancing with all the other exercises, can be frustrating - especially when this is touted as for anyone who can do push ups.

I want my money back please.

I’m very very annoyed and angry. When I chose my workouts and what not it said I can get a 7 day free trial so I continued on with it only seeing 100 Nz dollars had been taken out of my bank account . I wasn’t wanting this plan for a whole year. Just this one day to see how it’s like. Money don’t grow on trees so therefore I’m not rich.

Love it!

Workouts tailored to each one capacity.

Incredible

I honestly can't speak highly enough of this app. I have lost 10lbs in about a month and a half, and I'm looking very toned. The meal plan is a godsend. I transitioned into vegetarianism about six months ago and it was really hard at first to know what to cook. This app changed everything. I now have SO many fantastic vegetarian recipes that are healthy and truly delicious. The workouts are dope too. They tend to be HIIT type of workouts that are 10-15mins and require no equipment. That was perfect for me because I work a full time job and I'm in grad school, so can't spend two hours at the gym. This app was advertised to me and I'm so glad that I decided to check it out. Worth every penny.
